The ability of an object to float on a fluid is influenced by?
density. A less dense object will float on a more dense liquid.
What is the ability of a liquid to exert an upward force on an object?
"buoyancy"
What is the density of an object and how does it relate to the ability of the object to float in a liquid?
The density is the ratio between the mass and the volume of a material; an object float when this density is lower that the density of the liquid.
What 2 factors determine how heavy an object can be and still float?
The density of the object and the density of the liquid. The object must be less dense than the liquid to float.
The ability of a fluid a liquid or a gas to exert an upward force on an object immersed in it?
Buoyancy.

Does an object's ability to float depend on its density?
Yes, it does depend on the object's density; it depends on the liquid's density, too. An object with a lower density than the liquid it is in will float, while an object with a heavier density than the liquid will sink.
What 2 factors determine how heavy an object can be and still float?
The density of the object and the density of the liquid. The object must be less dense than the liquid to float.
Where does the ability of an object to float or submerge in water depends on?
ability of an object to float or submerge depends upon the density of the object and on the density of the liquid in which it is submerged if the density of an object is greater than the density of the liquid then the object submerges in the liquid and when its density is less than the density of liquid then it floats on the liquid as in submarines when it takes water in its hollow tank its density increases and it submerges and when it pushes out water from its hollow tanks its density decreases and ot floats on water
The ability of a fluid a liquid or a gas to exert an upward force on an object immersed in it?
Buoyancy.
When will an object float in a liquid?
An object will float in a liquid when the density of the liquid is higher than that of the object or when equal. That is to say Upthrust= or >weight of the object
What factors determine how heavy an object can be and still float?
An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.An object will float if it has less density than the density of the liquid.
Comparing the of an object with that of a liquid will tell you whether or not the object will float in that liquid?
density
What object placed in a liquid of greater density will do this?
an object will float on a denser liquid
Comparing the what of an object with that of a liquid will tell you whether or not the object will float in that liquid?
Density.
